But between much of the rhetoric and the reality of there is also evidence that the public’s opinions on youth crime and justice. the youth justice system are more complex than appears on the surface and are not as punitive as Longitudinal research has demonstrated that a some of the simple survey questions suggest. small percentage of offenders commit a dispropor- tionate amount of serious and repetitive criminal acts Recent controversy over youth crime and justice is and has identified the risk factors associated with nothing new. For example, the Young Offender’s Act these offenders. These factors can be used to identify of 1984 took seventeen years to be enacted and categories of children who have an elevated risk of continued to be the target of frequent criticism in becoming chronic and serious offenders as they age succeeding years, much of which reflected fundamen- and to suggest the types of early and targeted tal differences in the explanations of crime that prevention efforts of value in reducing such risk.

These differing efforts at the early prevention of crime are to be views about the causes of crime and the appropriate preferred to attempts to punish and/or rehabilitate ways of responding to it represent specific expres- older, identified offenders since research has shown Youth Crime and Justice in Alberta: RHETORIC AND REALITY 5 that putting people into the youth justice system often does not stop future offending and can result in unintended negative consequences for many youth. Substantial cost savings may also be realized if sufficient numbers of chronic, serious offenders can be prevented early on from taking this life course. Examples of such early, targeted social prevention programs include home visits to infants by trained nurses to reduce child abuse and other injuries; certain types of preschool programs; family therapy and parent training about delinquent and at-risk pre- adolescents; and social competency skills curriculums in schools. The paper describes several such model programs that have proven effective in reducing adolescent violent crime, aggression, delinquency, and/or substance abuse. Since not all crime can be prevented, the paper also describes several programs for responding to youth crime for which there is some evidence of effectiveness, such as Family Group Conferences and Youth Justice Committees. Youth crime and justice in Canada is certainly an important issue that requires serious attention, but it is hardly the crisis that some would have us believe. Much depends upon how the new Youth Criminal Justice Act is actually implemented. Even the best- validated programs will not succeed if not adequately funded and faithfully implemented by competent staff. Stable, long-term funding of well-established and validated model programs is required. So is a change in the focus of a number of politicians and the media from the exceptional crimes and punitive responses which exaggerate the threat to the public, distort public knowledge of and opinions about youth crime and justice, and limit the feasible options for public policy. A failure to alter the usual political rhetoric surrounding youth crime and justice ob- scures the reality in this area and will contribute to an on-going cycle of controversy that does little to advance efforts at effective crime prevention. 6 Youth Crime and Justice in Alberta: RHETORIC AND REALITY Introduction front-page, headline article in the June The article about Sonny Head’s parole and the 11th, 2002 Edmonton Journal reported reprise of the story of the Danelesko murder Athat Sonny Head, convicted of second- recalls the debates that have erupted at various degree murder and sentenced to life imprison- times in Alberta on the controversial subject of ment without parole eligibility for at least seven youth crime and how to deal with it.

    Havelock opens up The Secret Garden By Elizabeth McSheffrey, Grande Prairie Daily Herald-Tribune Thursday, April 3, 2014 4:09:34 MDT PM Edmonton photographer Jon Havelock sets up his new exhibit at the Art Gallery of Grande Prairie. Elizabeth McSheffrey/Daily Herald-Tribune Jon Havelock has always been interested in photography. As a teenager, he remembers playing around with film cameras before sidelining the hobby for a career in politics. He went to university, raised a family, and from 1993 to 2001, he served as a provincial MLA for Calgary-Shaw. Havelock served as Minister of Justice and Economic Development under the late former premier Ralph Klein, but retired from the legislature in 2001 to pursue his interests in art. t’s not exactly a natural progression, he admitted, but it’s a change he has never looked back on. “I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to be out of politics,” he said. “It was stimulating and challenging, but every day you’re faced with new problems... “For me, this is absolutely more rewarding, more fulfilling.” Havelock has been a professional photographer for more than seven years and specializes in images of nature and scenery. He opened his first exhibit at the Art Gallery of Grande Prairie on Thursday – a 20-piece display called, The Secret Garden. “When I’m working my images, I always look for contrast, I look for colour,” he explained. “But these are scenes you can drive by and quite frankly, not notice.” Havelock travelled across Western Canada and the United States to compile the series, which features a variety of plants from British Columbia to Hawaii.
